We as a society have made decent progress in acknowledging the rights of the LGBTQ+ community. The several conversations around making people aware of them, their lifestyle and their needs have helped to bring a lot of changes in today’s time. Many people from this community have made a popular identity for themselves in various fields and have thus opened a path for others to follow too. Among them is the Made In Heaven actress Trinetra Haldar who appeared in three big shows in 2023. She graced the recent episode of The Male Feminist and had a heart-to-heart conversation with host Siddharth Aalambayan about her life, and how she fought to accept her real identity as a transgender. In this episode, Trinetra had a strong message for people who want to come out too, and it’s worth listening to!
Trinetra Haldar On Accepting One’s Identity
The Rainbow Rishta actress Trinetra Haldar appeared on the new episode of Hauterrfly’s The Male Feminist, and she shed light on all the struggles she faced during her transitional phase as a trans person. In response to Siddharth Aalambayan’s question about advice to people who haven’t come out yet or are in their transitional phase, Trinetra Haldar instantly said, “Don’t feel pressured to figure yourself out at an early age. It’s a lot of pressure and honestly, it’s not healthy too.” Trinetra Haldar shared this advice from her personal experience and further added, “If there’s something that I would have done differently I would have taken it slower. I was in my third year when I had my surgery, and I could have taken two more years to figure things out.” Trinetra Haldar also recalled her surgery days in Bangkok where she met many people at the age of 50 who had families and were married to. She added, “There’s no ideal age or time to come and be yourself. You’re not running out of time.”
